Changes to the NHS Evidence HIR website

Image
By
The main page for the NHS Evidence Health Information Resources (HIR) has changed. This is now promoted as a "Journals and Databases" page. Here you can still link to the main NHS-provided databases and to our subscribed e-journals and e-books.
Options are available from the NHS Evidence Journals and Databases page

Please note that the "sign in" option at the top left of the screen is NOT for your Athens username. This is to allow you to register and sign on to the main NHS Evidence website.
The Athens login screen is available from within the individual options ie databases, journals, eBooks or NHS Athens.
The Health Information Resources web page on the Health Library website will be updated as soon as possible but if you do find any errors then please let the eResources librarian know.
The list of links to other resources  has been removed from the NHS Evidence Journals and Databases page, however we do have a comprehensive list of suggested literature searching sites.
